FOBEWOED 

Our  state  literature  is  strongest  in  local  lines.  First  in 
early  history  and  narration  of  personal  adventure.  Fortu- 
nately our  most  important  histories  are  written  by  men  who 
have  long  been  residents.  Meany,  Lyman,  Durham,  Snow- 
den  and  Bagley  have  themselves  been  a  part  of  the  story  and 
have  learned  much  at  first-hand.  Their  pages  have  a  flavor  of 
personal  interest  which  some  histories  lack. 

The  adventures  of  today  become  the  history  of  tomorrow. 
Even  the  most  commonplace  narration  of  experience  in  a 
new  country  has  its  value.  Those  original  documents, 
whether  diary,  letters,  memoir  or  autobiography  are  the  de- 
light of  one  who  has  the  true  historian's  instinct. 

The  mythology  of  the  tribes  that  eighty  years  ago  held 
possession  of  this  territory  is  native  romance,  a  literary  asset 
which  has  been  well  developed.  Lyman  has  collected  the 
myths  and  legends  of  the  peoples  on  the  Columbia.  Williams 
tells  those  that  cluster  about  Mount  Rainier.  Meany,  Curtis 
and  other  historians  have  enlivened  their  text  by  these 
romances  and  Miss  Judson  has  made  the  field  her  own. 

A  second  treasure  supply  of  the  state  lies  in  its  natural 
wonders  and  beauties.  What  other  state  can  boast  of  charms 
so  varied?  No  other  country  has  scenery  surpassing  in 
grandeur  our  mountains  and  forests,  or  more  beautiful  than 
our  inland  sea  with  its  emerald  shores  and  islands. 

Williams  is  not  alone  in  exploiting  this  rich  treasure.  A 
score  of  others  have  found  in  it  the  source  of  mood  for  their 
songs  or  the  frame  for  a  story  or  romance. 

In  philosophic  essay  and  the  higher  forms  of  pure  belles- 
lettres  the  proportion  of  writings  is  not  so  large  as  in  the 
old  literary  centers.  Thought  and  time  are  still  requisitioned 
for  the  founding  of  institutions.  Few  are  the  leisure-class 
people  who  pursue  writing  as  an  art.  Yet  one  who  cares  to 
investigate  will  discover  that  no  other  state  while  so  young 
has  shown  a  richer  output  of  literature,  in  content,  in  scope 
or  in  character. 

Perhaps  this  first  published  list  will  add  to  the  number 
of  those  who  do  care  to  investigate.  Perhaps  too  it  will 
result  in  a  wider  acquaintance  among  those  who  are  following 
the  same  undying  art.  Some  day  Washington  writers  will 
band  together  for  mutual  benefit. 


HISTORY 

1.  Blazing  the  Way.   (1909.)   Emily  Inez  Denny.     Pioneer 

home-life  pictured  by  the  daughter  of  the  early  settler 
who  wrote  No.  21. 

2.  Columbia  River,  Its  History,  Its  Myths,  Its  Scenery?  Its 

Commerce.  (1909.)  William  Dennison  Lyman.  Fully 
descriptive  and  reciting  personal  adventures.  Pro- 
fessor Lyman,  long-time  teacher  of  history  in  Whit- 
man College,  has  lived  his  whole  life  in  the  country 
he  describes.  The  book  contains  many  Indian  legends. 
Eighty  illustrations. 

3.  The  Conquerors.  (1907.)    Rev.  A.  Atwood.    Dedicated  to 

Jason  Lee  and  the  pioneer  missionaries  who  laid  the 
foundations  of  American  institutions  in  old  Oregon. 
Much  about  Lee  whose  missionary  labors  antedated 
Marcus  Whitman's  by  two  years.  To  some  extent  it 
touches  the  so-called  Whitman  controversy,  a  dis- 
cussion due  in  part  to  the  fact  that  the  admirers  of 
Whitman  claimed  too  much  for  a  patriot  whose  serv- 
ices needed  no  exaggeration.  It  has  the  endorsement 
of  the  Washington  State  Historical  Society. 

4.  Glimpses  in  Pioneer  Life  on  Puget  Sound.  (1903.)    Same 

author.  A  history  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church 
on  the  Pacific  Coast. 

5.  David  S.  Maynard  and  Catherine  T.  Maynard.    (1906.) 

T.  W.  Prosch.  Biography  of  two  of  the  immigrants 
of  1850.  Mrs.  Maynard  is  honored  in  Seattle  as  the 
founder  of  a  free  reading  room  which  grew  into  the 
Young  Men's  Christian  Association  of  the  city. 

6.  Gettysburg.    (1911.)     Captain  R.  K.  Beecham.     An  ac- 

count of  the  great  battle.  Acknowledged  to  be  most 
complete  and  accurate  as  to  facts  and  it  is  written 
with  the  fire  of  a  patriot  and  a  poet.  The  veteran 
returns  to  visit  the  battle-field  where  as  a  youth  half 
a  century  before  he  fought  for  the  flag.  Through  his 
eyes  and  memories  the  reader  sees  events. 

<5 


7.  History  of  Puget  Sound  Country.  (1903.)     Colonel  Will- 

iam Farland  Prosser.  The  late  president  of  the  State 
Historical  Society  compiled  this  work  in  two  large 
volumes,  a  painstaking  and  valuable  reference  work. 

8.  History  of  Seattle.  (1916.)    Clarence  B.  Bagley.     Three 

large  volumes.  Very  comprehensive.  The  third  vol- 
ume is  wholly  biographical. 

9.  In  the  Beginning.   (1905.)     Same  author.     A  sketch  of 

events  in  Western  Washington  while  it  was  still  a  part 
of  old  Oregon.  Published  separately,  also  in  the 
1909  edition  of  Meeker's  "Pioneer  Reminiscences." 

10.  History  of  the  State  of  Washington.  (1909.)     Edmond  S. 

Meany.  The  most  accurate  and  complete  history  of 
the  state.  In  some  measure  it  covers  the  whole  Pa- 
cific slope.  It  is  intended  for  school  use  but  will  in- 
terest any  one  who  likes  to  study  or  read  history. 
The  story  is  divided  into  discovery,  exploration,  oc- 
cupation, territorial  days  and  statehood,  each  treated 
clearly  and  fully.  The  author,  professor  of  history  in 
the  University  of  Washington,  is  a  hero-worshipper 
and  extolls  the  daring  of  the  adventurer  and  the 
patience  and  courage  of  the  pioneer. 

11.  Vancouver's  Discovery  of  Puget  Sound.   (1907.)     Same 

author.  Largely  the  journal  of  the  discoverer  with 
extensive  notes,  many  portraits  and  biographies  of  the 
men  whose  names  were  given  to  geographic  features 
of  the  Northwest.  A  most  important  piece  of  historic 
research.  A  fitting  supplement  to  this  work  is 

12.  A  New  Vancouver  Journal  on  the  Discovery  of  Puget 

Sound,  by  a  Member  of  the  Chatham's  Crew.  (1915.) 
Edited  by  Professor  Meany. 

13.  United  States  History  for  Schools.   (1912.)     Shows  the 

development  of  America  as  part  of  world  history. 
This  has  met  with  general  approval  as  a  text-book. 

14.  History  of  Washington,  The  Rise  and  Progress  of  an 

American  State.  (1909-1911.)  Clinton  A.  Snowden. 
Four  elegant  volumes  in  half-leather  and  rich  in 


illustrations.  Two  later  volumes  issued  as  supple- 
ments are  wholly  biographical. 

15.  The  Iron  Way.  (1907.)  Sarah  Pratt  Carr.  The  story 
of  the  building  of  the  Central  Pacific,  the  first  trans- 
continental railway. 

16*  The  Cost  of  Empire.  Same  author.  The  record  of  the 
Whitman  massacre.  It  was  made  the  basis  of  the 
opera  "Narcissa"  of  which  Mrs  Carr's  daughter, 
Mary  Carr  Moore,  wrote  the  music. 

17.  Life  of  Isaac  Ingalls  Stevens.  (1900.)    Hazard  Stevens. 

The  two  volumes  contain  much  information  about  the 
early  Indian  wars,  councils  and  treaties.  They  show 
the  simplicity  of  official  form  during  the  life  of  the 
first  Governor  of  the  Territory. 

18.  Marcus  Whitman,  Pathfinder  and  Patriot  (1909.)    Rev. 

Myron  Eells.  The  author  is  son  of  Rev.  Gushing  Eells, 
founder  of  Whitman  College  and  personal  friend  and 
co-worker  with  Whitman. 

19.  Fathers  Eells,  or  the  Results  of  55  Years  of  Missionary 

Labor  in  Washington  and  Oregon,  by  the  same  author, 
is  a  biography  of  the  father. 

20.  Memoirs  of  Orange  Jacobs.  (1908.)     Written  by  himself

Oregon  and  Washington.  It  contains  a  good  account 
of  the  Seattle  fire  of  1889. 

21.  Pioneer  Days  on  Puget  Sound.  (1888  and  1908.)     Arthur 

A.  Denny.  An  interesting  autobiography  and  valu- 
able for  its  story  of  the  founding  of  Seattle. 

22.  Pioneer  Reminiscences  of  Puget  Sound,  The  Tragedy 

of  Leschi.  (1905.)  Ezra  Meeker.  An  account  of  the 
coming  of  the  first  whites,  their  encounters  with  the 
red  race,  the  first  treaties  with  the  Indians,  the  war 
that  followed,  and  the  cruise  of  the  author  on  Puget 
Sound  fifty  years  ago.  One  edition  contains  Bagley's 
In  the  Beginning.

28.  The  Ox  Team;  or  The  Old  Oregon  Trail.  (1906.)  The 
story  of  a  slow  and  eventful  journey  by  ox  team  from 
the  Middle  West  to  this  territory  more  than  sixty 
years  ago.  Mr.  Meeker  and  his  oxen  have  been  a 
conspicuous  feature  of  several  western  expositions  and 
are  a  picturesque  relic  of  the  fast-fading  pioneer  life. 
Today,  Ezra  Meeker,  eighty-four  years  old,  is  cross- 
ing the  continent  in  a  "schoonermobile,"  a  motor  car 
built  on  the  lines  of  the  old-time  prairie  schooner. 
It  contains  a  bed,  a  stove  and  a  hunting  outfit.  He  is 
retracing  the  journey  of  the  ox  cart. 

24.  Russian  Expansion  on  the  Pacific,  1641-1850,  An  Account 

of  the  Expeditions  Made  by  the  Russians  Along  the 
Pacific.  Frank  Alfred  Golder.  In  January  1914  the 
author  was  sent  to  St.  Petersburg  to  catalogue  the 
materials  in  the  Russian  archives  relating  to  America. 
The  work  was  done  for  the  Carnegie  Institute,  depart- 
ment of  historical  research.  Professor  Golder  is  one  of 
the  few  American  historians  who  are  familiar  with 
the  Russian  language  and  his  selection  was  compli- 
mentary to  him  and  to  the  State  College. 

25.  The  Siwash,  Their  Life,  Legends  and  Tales.  (1895.)   J. 

A.  Costello,  an  old  resident  of  Puget  Sound.  The 
material  was  gathered  chiefly  from  the  Indians  them- 
selves. This  book  contains  a  good  description  of 
Chief  Seattle.  Out  of  print. 

26.  Spokane  and  The  Inland  Empire.    (1912.)    Mr.  N.  W. 

Durham.    In  three  large  volumes. 

27.  Syllabus  of  Continental  European  History  from  Fall  of 

Rome  to  1870.  (1904.)  Oliver  Huntington  Richardson. 

28.  Tillicnm  Tales  of  Thnrston  County.  (1914.)  Mrs.  George 

Blankenship.  Full  of  historical  material  of  more  than 
local  value  and  interest. 


29.  Washington  and  Its  Swedish  Population.  (1905.)     Ernst 

Teofil  Skarsteadt.  The  author  has  been  a  resident  of 
the  state  fourteen  years.  As  newspaper  man  and 
contributor  to  Eastern  journals  he  has  well  covered 
the  life  of  his  fellow-countrymen  in  this  state.  He 
has  written  on  subjects  sociological,  historical,  agri- 
cultural and  biographical. 

30.  Our  Heroes  of  the  Pen.    Mr.  Skarsteadt  considers  this 

his  most  valuable  work. 


TRAVEL   AND   DESCRIPTION 

Books  on  Alaska  would  fill  a  long  shelf.     Three 
are  particularly  entertaining  and  rich  in  description. 

31.  Alaska,  an  Empire  in  the  Making.  (1913.)    John  Jasper 

Underwood.  Written  after  fourteen  years  continuous 
residence  in  Alaska  and  the  Yukon  Territory.  The 
writer,  a  newspaper  man,  sees  things  from  the  im- 
personal viewpoint  of  the  journalist  with  a  keen 
appetite  for  news.  For  a  time  he  ran  the  "farthest 
north"  newspaper,  which  sold  for  "ivory,  gold-dust 
and  skins."  These  words  are  characteristic  of  his 
wide-sweeping  vision:  "Here  is  a  land  of  25,000  miles 
of  coastline  and  with  6,000  miles  of  navigable  water- 
ways." The  United  States  bureau  of  education  has 
put  this  on  the  list  as  a  standard  work  on  Alaska. 

32.  Alaska,  Its  Meaning  to  the  World,  Its  Resources,  Its 

Opportunities.  (1914.)  Charles  R.  Tuttle.  A  good  deal 
of  space  is  given  to  the  history  of  the  Government 
railway  legislation.  It  lauds  the  energy  of  the  Se- 
attle Chamber  of  Commerce  which  conducted  a  suc- 
cessful lobby  in  Washington  city  during  the  anxious 
months  while  the  Alaska  railway  bill  hung  fire  in 
Congress. 

33.  Alaska,    the    Great    Country.    (1908.)     Ella  Higginson. 

This  third  book  is  by  a  lady  whom  many  love  to  call 
"our  foremost  story-teller  and  sweetest  singer."  It 
is  most  personal,  crowded  with  real  adventures,  some 

10 


of  them  humorous,  which  the  reader  shares  vividly. 
Mrs.  Higginson  says,  "No  one  writer  has  ever  de- 
scribed Alaska.  No  one  writer  can  ever  describe  it, 
but  each  must  do  his  share  according  to  the  spell  the 
country  casts  upon  him."  Her  description  is  bright 
and  fascinating.  She  is  now  revising  it  and  bringing 
it  up  to  date  for  a  new  edition. 

34.  American  Fur  Trade  of  the  Far  West   (1902.)    Hiram 

Martin  Chittenden. 

35.  Yellowstone  National  Park,  Historical  and  Descriptive. 

Same  author. 

No.  34  is  a  history  of  the  pioneer  trading  posts  and 
early  fur  companies  of  the  Missouri  River  and  Rocky 
Mountains  and  of  overland  commerce. 

No.  35  is  the  author's  best  known  work.  A  fifth 
edition  was  published  in  1905.  No  man  has  had  a  bet- 
teer  opportunity  to  know  the  Yellowstone  than  Gen. 
Chittenden  who  was  in  charge  of  the  government  work 
there  and  no  writer  more  evenly  combines  the  scien- 
tific mind  of  the  practical  engineer  with  the  charm  of 
a  poetic  and  artistic  observer.  To  read  this  is  next 
best  to  seeing  the  park. 

36.  The   City   That  Made  Itself;   A  Literary  and  Pictorial 

Record  of  the  Building  of  Seattle.  (1914.)  Welford 
Beaton.  Printed  in  a  choice  leatherbound  silk-lined 
finely  illustrated  edition  of  three  hundred  copies 
which  readily  found  their  way  to  the  libraries  of  the 
well-to-do.  The  book  tells  of  the  hills  that  have  been 
laid  low,  of  the  valleys  that  have  been  filled,  the  tide 
flats  that  have  been  redeemed,  of  the  street  car  lines 
and  electric  development.  One  chapter  on  the  "Ladies 
Library  Association"  shows  how  women  laid  the  foun- 
dation of  the  public  library.  Another  chapter  de- 
scribes the  architecture  of  the  metropolis  "from  log 
cabin  to  sky  scraper." 

37.  Fifteen  Thousand  Miles  by  Stage.  (1911.)   Carrie  Adell 

Strahorn.      A    woman's     unique     experience     during 

11 


thirty  years  of  pathfinding  and  pioneering  from  the 
Missouri  River  to  the  Pacific  and  from  Alaska  to 
Mexico.  An  unusually  interesting  narration  of  the 
days  when  travel  was  beset  with  different  if  not  more 
dangers  than  today.  The  book  is  put  out  attractively 
with  350  illustrations. 


88.    Guardians  of  the  Columbia.  (1912.)    John  H.  Williams. 

39.  The  Mountain  That  Was  God.  (1910.)    Same  author. 

40.  Yosemite  and  the  High  Sierras.  (1914.)     Same  author. 

They  are  books  of  rare  value,  occupying  a  field  by 
themselves.  They  are  full  of  fascinating  word  pic- 
tures of  mountain  scenes.  The  first  is  of  Mt.  Hood, 
Mt.  Adams  and  Mt.  St.  Helens.  The  city  librarian 
of  a  Massachusetts  city  wrote  to  Mr.  Williams  "We 
have  a  radiopticon  in  our  library.  I  shall  mount  the 
illustrations  from  your  book  and  use  the  text  for 
short  talks  on  the  mountains."  No.  39  pictures 
Rainier  which  is  called  "Rainier-Tacoma."  John 
Muir  wrote  "The  glorious  mountain  is  indebted  to  you 
for  your  magnificent  book  and  so  is  every  mountain- 
eer." This  contains  the  "flora  of  the  mountain 
slopes"  by  J.  B.  Flett.  The  third  book  is  dedicated 
to  the  Sierra  Club  with  an  introductory  poem  by 
Robert  Service. 


41.  The  North  American  Indian.  (1908-1915.)  Edward  S. 
Curtis.  It  is  doubtful  if  any  book  which  has  to  do 
with  our  state  has  attracted  to  it  so  much  notice  as 
these  ten  volumes  of  Indian  lore  illustrated  by  su- 
perb photographs  taken  by  the  author.  He  spent 
years  in  getting  first  hand  acquaintance  with  some  of 
the  tribes  and  in  securing  the  pictures  which  have 
made  him  famous.  Theodore  Roosevelt  wrote  the 
preface  and  J.  Pierpont  Morgan  subscribed  $3,000  as 
an  advance  guarantee. 


42.    Rambles  in  Colonial  Byways.  (1900.)     Rufus  Rockwell 
Wilson. 

12 


48.  Bomance  of  Feudal  Chateaux.  (1900.)  Elizabeth  Williams 
Champney.  This  is  one  of  a  delightful  series  written 
in  part  before  the  author  was  a  resident  of  the  state. 
The  others  are 

44.  Eomance  of  French  Abbeys.   (1905.) 

45.  Eomance  of  Italian  Villas.   (1906.) 

46.  Romance  of  Renaissance  Chateaux.  (1907.) 

47.  Romance  of  Bourbon  Chateaux.  (1907.) 

48.  Romance  of  Roman  Tillas.  (1908.) 

49.  Romance  of  Imperial  Rome.    (1910.)     Mrs.   Champney 

also  wrote  Great  Grandmothers'  Girls  in  New  France 
and  Three  Vassar  Girls. 

50.  Romance  of  Old  Belgium,  from  Caesar  to  Kaiser.  (1915.) 

Elizabeth  Williams  Champney  and  Prere  Champney. 
A  choice  story  full  of  the  romance  of  truth.  The  il- 
lustrations are  from  Rubens'  paintings,  photographs 
and  original  pen  and  ink  drawings. 

51.  Seven  Weeks  in  Hawaii.   (1913.)     Minnie  Leola  Craw- 

ford. 

52.  Seven  Weeks  in  the  Orient,  (1914.)     Same  author.    Va- 

cation letters,  written  by  a  business  girl  who  was  en- 
joying her  trip  to  the  full,  were  sent  to  the  mother 
at  home.  They  were  passed  on  to  be  read  by  friends 
who  saw  that  there  was  more  than  a  personal  inter- 
est in  them  and  insisted  on  their  publication.  A 
Chicago  publisher  readily  accepted  them.  Another 
vacation  trip  led  to  the  second  volume.  The  style  is 
sprightly  and  original  and  photographs  of  the  author's 
own  taking  illustrate  both  books. 

58.  Seven  Tears  on  the  Pacific  Slope.  (1914.)  Mrs.  Hugh 
Fraser  and  Hugh  C.  Fraser.  The  writers  lived  in  Oka- 
nogan  County  in  a  little  village  on  the  Methow  River 
near  its  junction  with  the  Columbia.  They  tell  of 
ordinary  events  but  give  a  clear  picture  of  the  devel- 
opment of  that  region  from  1905  to  1912. 

54.  Reminiscences  of  a  Diplomatist's  Wife.  (1912.)  Either 
alone  or  in  collaboration  Mrs.  Fraser  has  published 
ten  volumes. 

13

ham.  It  pictures  the  literary  world  in  which  Eng-

FICTION 


77.  Black  Bear.  (1910.)     William  H.  Wright. 

78.  Grizzly  Bear.  (1909.)     Same  author. 

79.  The  Bridge  of  the  Gods.    Frederick  Balch.    The  writer 

grew  up  in  Klickitat  county.  When  a  boy  he  resolved 
to  write  about  the  Indians  of  the  Columbia  and  began 
collecting  material  by  haunting  their  camps  for  days 
at  a  time.  A  lady  who  has  lived  in  the  state  sixty- 
four  years  says  "It  is  the  only  story  that  tells  accu- 
ately  of  the  early  life  of  those  Indians." 

80.  Chaperoning  Adrienne;  Through  the  Yellowstone.  (1907.) 

Alice  Harriman.  This  lady  has  distinguished  herself 
in  several  ways,  first  as  poetess  and  contributor  to 
magazines,  then  as  book  publisher.  Other  books 
she  wrote  are  Stories  of  Montana,  Men  of  Two 
Counties,  besides  poems  and  one  juvenile  work.  Her 
house  has  a  number  of  first  class  books  to  its  credit. 
She  brought  out  Lafcadio  Hearne's  Temptations  of 

16 


St.  Anthony.  She  took  special  pride  in  bringing  out 
books  on  western  topics,  as  the  narratives  of  the  two 
Dennys  and  the  story  which  become  the  opera  Nar- 
cissa. 


81.  Club  Stories.  (1915.)  Members  of  federated  clubs. 
Written  in  competition  for  a  prize  offered  by  the  State 
Federation  of  Women's  Clubs.  Of  twenty-two  stories 
submitted  the  twelve  receiving  highest  rank  were  pub- 
lished. The  scene  of  each  is  laid  in  Washington  so 
they  are  full  of  local  color  and  have  a  value  apart 
from  their  literary  merit.  First  prize  was  won  by 
Mrs.  Robert  J.  Fisher. 


82.  Every  Child.  (1915.)  Gertrude  Fulton  Tooker.  The 
author  had  previously  published  a  few  poems  but 
when  she  was  busier  than  ever  before  in  her  life, 
caring  for  two  children,  she  found  time  to  write  this 
pleasing  allegory.  It  deserves  a  welcome  by  all  people 
who  remember  the  visions  and  dreams  of  child-life. 


88.  Forest  Orchid  and  Other  Stories.  (1902.)  Ella  Higgin- 
son. 

84.  From  the  Land  of  the  Snow  Pearls.  (1897.)  Same 
author. 

86.  Mariella  of  Out- west  (1902.)  Same  author.  These  are 
the  stories  of  one  who  is  widely  known  as  our  first 
story  writer.  Her  name  became  known  when  she  won, 
over  a  thousand  competitors,  a  McClure  prize  for  five 
hundred  dollars.  That  story  was  "The  Takin'  in  of  old 
Miss  Lane,"  1894.  Since  then  she  has  written  scores 
of  stories  which  have  appeared  in  many  different 
magazines.  She  has  handled  some  types  which  are  ac- 
cepted in  the  far  east  as  representative  of  the  west 
and  are  not  complimentary  to  the  good  taste  and 
social  polish  of  this  longitude.  But  no  author  of  the 
state  has  been  ranked  so  high  by  the  reviewers  and 
critics.  All  her  literary  work  has  been  done  in  this 
state.  She  shows  constantly  increasing  strength.

89.  Happy  Valley.    Ann  Shannon  Monroe.    Tells  of  home- 

steading  experiences  in  the  sage-brush  country  where 
the  author  lived  the  life  of  a  settler.  She  first  at- 
tracted attention  by  her  story,  Making  a  Business 
Woman,  which  appeared  in  Saturday  Evening  Post. 
It  is  said  that  she  has  a  hand  in  the  editorial  columns 
of  the  Ladies  Home  Journal. 

90.  Heart  of  the  Bed  Firs.  (1908.)    Ada  Woodruff  Anderson. 

91.  Strain  of  White.  (1909.)     Same  author. 

92.  Bim  of  the  Desert  (1914.)     Same  author.    The  last  of 

these  three  has  scenes  laid  in  Alaska,  on  the  Sound, 
at  Scenic  and  in  the  Wenatchee  valley.  The  devel- 
opment of  the  desert  by  irrigation  into  the  fertile 
fields  and  the  productive  orchard,  the  tragedy  of 
homesickness  and  starvation  in  Alaska,  the  fatal 
avalanche  in  the  Cascades  in  the  winter  of  1909- 
1910  at  Wellington,  all  are  woven  into  the  story.  It 
includes  also  an  attack  on  the  Roosevelt-Pinchot 
conservation  policy  which  reflects  the  sentiment  some- 
what widely  held  on  the  Pacific  Coast.  These  features 
have  helped  to  give  the  story  a  wide  reading  near 
home  but  it  is  a  good  seller  the  country  over.  Very 
speedily  it  reached  a  fourth  edition  and  in  its  first 
year  sales  reached  fifty  thousand.  Mrs.  Anderson  is 
the  daughter  of  a  Washington  pioneer.  Those  who 
know  her  tell  us  that  her  home-making  and  family- 
raising  are  as  successful  as  her  story-writing.  Some 
one  said  "She  is  good  for  several  things  and  good  at 
them  all."

are  short  story  collections.  Mrs.  Comer  has  of  late 
done  a  good  deal  of  magazine  work  of  a  high  order, 
her  contributions  usually  appearing  in  the  Atlantic. 
Once  when  asked  for  a  biography  she  replied,  "I 
really  haven't  any.  I  doubt  if  any  one  ever  got  along 
so  comfortably  with  so  little  biography  since  the  world 
began."  Of  the  town  where  she  used  to  live  she  said, 
"It  was  a  kind  of  a  town  which  drives  one  into  the 
inner  world  in  search  of  excitement."  When  a  pub- 
lisher asked  for  a  photograph  she  wrote  "I  have  no 
photographs  of  myself  except  some  very  old  ones  in 
storage  and  no  time  to  get  any  new  ones." 

102.  A  Rocky  Mountain   Sketch.     Lou   Gertrude   Diven.     It 

introduces  some  characters  drawn  beautifully  and 
clearly  as  by  a  master  of  fiction,  yet  there  is  evidence 
that  compels  the  reader  to  feel  that  it  is  a  true  narra- 
tive. Many  stories  and  essays  by  Mrs.  Diven  are  in 
print.

109.  Fingers  That  See.  (1914.)  Nancy  Buskett.  Dedicated

of  a  blind  girl.  One  learns  to  love  the  child  who 
asks,  "Can  people  who  see,  see  'round  corners?"  and 
says,  "Lovin'  isn't  just  feelin'.  Its  sometimes  doin' 
things  for  people."  The  author  was  once  musical 
director  in  a  school  for  the  blind.  At  another  time

police  of  Canada. 


116.  The  Yankee  Boodle  Book.  (1914.)  Gertrude  D.  Best. 
(Nom  de  plume  Gertrude  Optimus.)  For  very  little 
people.  When  the  author  wanted  to  buy  some  Christ- 
mas books  for  her  little  friends  she  did  not  find  what 
she  liked.  She  was  not  pleased  with  the  idea  of 
filling  children's  heads  with  nonsense  rhymes,  good 
only  to  be  forgotten,  and  the  crazy  pictures  of  chil- 
dren's books  were  not  all  of  them  to  her  liking. 
Like  the  president  of  a  California  University,  she 
too  made  a  book  for  little  people.  He  did  it  by  writ- 
ing rhymes  still  more  nonsensical  and  impossible.  She 
did  it  by  putting  into  jingle  form  some  facts  of  United 
States  history.  The  pictures  are  attractive  and  true 
to  period.  The  rhymes  are  as  catchy  as  Simple  Simon 
and  Jack  Horner,  but  when  a  child  has  sung  these 
over  for  a  few  weeks  he  knows  for  keeps  some  people 
and  some  happenings  in  American  history.

cluded in  these  outlines  even  when  published  in  book 
form.  Here  is  an  exception.  One  Christmas  some 
friends  of  Dr.  West  brought  out  a  volume  of  his  ser- 
mons,— five  of  them — under  this  title.  They  are  the 
work  of  a  poetic  mind,  choice  in  literary  finish  and

156.  Story  of  a  Mother-lore.  (1913.)  Annette  Fitch-Brewer. 
This  tells  a  remarkable  experience.  When  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  Brewer  were  divorced  the  court  gave  the  custody 
of  their  one  child  to  the  father.  The  mother  fought,  not 
the  divorce,  but  for  a  share  at  least  in  the  care  of 
her  boy.  While  he  was  spending  a  few  days  with  her 
she  fled.  For  five  years  she  evaded  the  father's 
efforts  to  trace  them  while  he  spent  large  sums  in 
detective  work  posting  photographs  of  the  two  all 
over  the  country  as  "fugitives  from  justice."  Fi- 
nally the  arm  of  the  law  reached  her,  living  in  a  little 
village  under  an  assumed  name.  The  law  took  the 

25 


boy  from  his  mother  and  in  her  loneliness  she  wrote 
this  book.  It  is  the  experience  of  a  bright  observer 
who  wandered  thousands  of  miles  with  all  her  senses 
on  the  alert. 


157.  That  Something.  (1914.)  William  Witherspoon  Wood- 
bridge.  A  progressive  form  of  mental  science  put  in 
a  new  and  original  style.  The  writer  believes  in  him- 
self. What  is  rarer,  he  is  teaching  other  people  to 
believe  in  themselves.  The  book  has  met  with  great 
results.  The  publisher  reports  sales  to  every  state 
in  the  union  but  three  and  a  larger  sale  than  any 
book  ever  published  west  of  Chicago. 

168.  Skooting    Skyward.    (1912.)      An   earlier    book   by   the 

same  writer  met  with  moderate  success,  perhaps  be- 
cause of  the  atrocious  Josh  Billings  spelling  which 
should  have  been  buried  with  its  originator. 

169.  War  or  Peace.   (1911.)     Hiram  Martin  Chittenden.     A 

philosophical  treatment  of  the  theme.  A  splendidly 
optimistic,  logical  and  sane  chapter  is  on  "the  future 
hope." 

160.  Ye  Towne  Gossip.  (1914.)  Kenneth  C.  Beaton.  A 
sparkling  book,  the  first  publication  in  book  form  by 
"K.  C.  B."  He  made  a  wide  acquaintance  by  four- 
teen years  of  newspaper  work  in  the  state.  Then  in 
the  daily  Post-Intelligencer  developed  this  form  which 
gave  him  fame.  Many  readers  turned  first  each  morn- 
ing to  his  column  on  the  third  page  to  see  what 
"K.  C.  B."  had  to  say.  That  little  morning  story  was 
always  an  appeal  to  the  heart,  sometimes  as  a  foun- 
tain of  tears,  sometimes  as  a  wellspring  of  joy.  A 
friend  writes  of  him  "He  is  a  temperamental  freak 
in  that  he  is  an  emotional  Britisher  and  is  not  the 
least  bit  ashamed  of  his  emotions."

a  strong  appeal  for  a  needed  reform.  He  has  now  in  prepara- 
tion an  American  literature  designed  for  class-room  use.

Lines  worth  knowing: 

THE  EVEBGBEEff  PDfE 

The  rivers  to  the  ocean  flow, 

The  sunsets  burn  and  flee; 
The  stars  come  to  the  darkling  sky, 

The  violets  to  the  lea; 
But  I  stay  in  one  lone  sweet  place 

And  dream  of  the  blue  sea. 
The  harebell  blooms  and  is  away, 

The  salmon  spawns  and  dies; 
The  oriole  nests  and  is  on  the  wing, 

Calling  her  sweet  good-bys.     .    .    . 
But  I,  when  blossom  and  fruit  are  gone, 

Yearn,  steadfast,  to  the  skies. 

I  am  a  prayer  and  a  praise, 

A  sermon  and  a  song; 
My  leaf-chords  thrill  at  the  wind's  will 

To  nocturnes  deep  and  strong; 
Or  the  sea's  far  lyric  melodies 

Echo  and  prolong. 
When  April  newly  decks  my  form 

In  silken  green  attire, 
I  light  my  candles,  tall  and  pale, 

With  holy  scarlet  fire — 
And  straight  their  incense  mounts  to  God, 

Pure  as  a  soul's  desire. 

My  branches  poise  upon  the  air, 

Like  soft  and  level  wings; 
My  trembling  leaves  the  wind  awakes 

To  a  harp  of  emerald  strings — 
Or  thro'  the  violet  silences 

A  golden  vesper  sings. 
I  am  a  symbol  and  a  sign.    .    .    . 

Thro'  blue  or  rose  or  gray; 
Thro'  rain  and  dark;  thro'  storms  of  night; 

Thro'  opaline  lights  of  day — 
Slowly  and  patiently  up  to  God 

I  make  my  beautiful  way. 

— Higginson.

ENSHRINED 

"My  son"    .... 
Her  tone  was  soft  with  wistfulness — 
"Would  now  be  twenty-one    .    .    . 
If  he  had  lived." 

A  silence  fell    .    .    . 

And  thought  sped  swiftly  back 

Through  years  of  fulness  and  content — 

Save  for  one  gray  thread  of  loneliness. 

For  she  had  never  parted  company 

With  him, 

Who  left  her  arms  bereft 

Of  her  man-child. 

"And  so," 

Again  she  spoke, 

"I  watch  the  youths 

Who  grow  apace  with  him  in  years, 

And  all  their  winning  traits 

I  seize  upon,  invest  my  son  with  them, 

And  love  all  youth  the  more 

Because  I  too 

Hold  in  my  heart 

A  vivid  memory." 

Again  the  silence  fell     .    .    . 

I  turned  away — 

For  I  had  glimpsed  the  sanctuary 

Of  a  mother's  soul, 

In  which  a  spirit  was  enshrined 

For  all  Eternity. 

— Adele  M.  Ballard 


Long  hours  we  toiled  up  through  the  solemn  wood, 
Beneath  moss-banners  stretched  from  tree  to  tree; 

At  last  upon  a  barren  hill  we  stood, 
And,  lo,  above  loomed  Majesty. 

— Herbert  Bashford

NIGHT  ON  THE  MOUNTAIN 

Thou  hear'st  the  star  songs  clear, 
When  all  is  silent  here, 

And  I,  asleep. 
Spheres,  ringing  music  rare 

Through  upper  realms  of  air, 
'Round  thy  crowned  head,  may  dare 

Their  vigils  keep. 

— Bernice  E.  Newell 


"Great  Mountain,  who  once  to  a  pagan  race  meant  God, 

Make  us  to  realize  our  shame, 
That,  failing  to  sing  praises  to  thy  wondrous  form, 

We  stoop  to  quarrel  o'er  a  name." 

— Anon. 

"The  mountain-lover  does  not  always  gaze  at  Rainier  and 

Olympus. 
He  has   learned  that  the   foot-hills   have  a  charm   and   an 

interest  of  their  own.    And  they  too  point  upward." 

— Club  Stories 


UP,  MY  HEART 

The  dark,  dark  night  is  gone, 

The  lark  is  on  the  wing, 

From  black  and  barren  fields  he  soars, 

Eternal  hope  to  sing. 

And  shall  I  be  less  brave, 
Than  yon  sweet  lyric  thing? 
From  deeps  of  failure  and  despair 
Up,  up,  my  heart,  and  sing. 
The  dark,  dark  year  is  gone; 
The  red  blood  of  the  spring 
Will  quicken  nature's  pulses  soon, 
So  up,  my  heart,  and  sing. 

— Ella  Higginson

THAT  SOMETHING 

A  man's  success  depends  alone  on  That  Something.  That 
Something  of  his  soul.  Abraham  Lincoln  found  it  and  it 
warmed  the  cold  floor  on  which  he  lay  and  studied.  It  added 
light  to  the  flckering  glow  of  the  wood  fire,  that  he  might  see 
to  read. 

It  spurred  him  on  and  on  and  on. 

That  Something  is  an  awful  force. 

It  made  of  a  puny  Corsican  the  Ruler  of  the  World. 
It  made  of  a  thin-chested  bookkeeper  the  money  king  of  his 

age. 

It  made  of  Edison  the  great  man  of  a  great  country. 
It   made    Carnegie.      It    made    Woodrow    Wilson.      It    made 

Roosevelt. 
It  can  make  you. 

And  it  is  now  in  your  soul.     Awake  it  now.     "That  Some- 
thing." 

"No,  it  can't  be  done,  it  can't  be  done,"  murmured  the 
professor.  "I  have  drunk  deeply  of  the  cup  of  life,  and  I  am 
now  drinking  of  the  dregs.  The  cup  is  filled  but  once,  and 
when  it's  gone  there's  nothing  left  but  old  age  and  poverty." 

"You  fool,"  cried  Randolph,  leaning  forward  and  shak- 
ing the  little  man  roughly.  "You  almost  had  That  Something 
within  your  power,  and  now  you  sing  it  back  to  sleep  with 
your  silly  song  of  pessimism.  It's  the  false  philosophy, 
that  such  as  you  sing,  which  has  kept  men  in  the  ruts  of 
their  own  digging  for  centuries  past. 

Wake  man,  wake  That  Something  within  your  soul." 

— W.  W.  Woodbridge 


THE  GAME 

'I  win,"  cried  Death  with  a  triumphant  grin. 
"My  body,  yes,  but  not  the  soul  within"

MY  MOTHER— A  PRATER 

For  the  body  you  gave  me,  the  bone  and  the  sinew,  the 
heart  and  the  brain  that  are  yours,  my  mother,  I  thank  you. 
I  thank  you  for  the  light  in  my  eyes,  the  blood  in  my  veins, 
for  my  speech,  for  my  life,  for  my  being.  All  that  I  am  is 
from  you  who  bore  me. 

For  your  smile  in  the  morning  and  your  kiss  at  night, 
my  mother,  I  thank  you.  I  thank  you  for  the  tears  you  shed 
over  me,  the  songs  that  you  sung  to  me,  the  prayers  you  said 
for  me,  for  your  vigils  and  ministerings.  All  that  I  am  is  by 
you  who  reared  me. 

For  the  faith  you  had  in  me,  the  hope  you  had  for  me,  for 
your  trust  and  your  pride,  my  mother,  I  thank  you.  I  thank 
you  for  your  praise  and  your  chiding,  for  the  justice  you 
bred  into  me  and  the  honor  you  madei  mine.  All  that  I  am 
you  taught  me. 

For  the  times  that  I  hurt  you,  the  times  I  had  no  smile 
for  you,  the  caresses  that  I  did  not  give  you,  my  mother  for- 
give me.  For  your  lessons  I  did  not  learn,  for  your  wishes 
I  did  not  heed,  for  the  counsels  I  did  not  obey,  my  mother, 
forgive  me.  Forgive  me  my  pride  in  my  youth  and  my  glory 
in  my  strength  that  forgot  the  holiness  of  your  years  and  the 
veneration  of  your  weakness, — for  my  neglect,  for  my  selfish- 
ness, for  all  the  great  debts  of  your  love  that  I  have  not 
paid,  mother,  sweet  mother,  forgive  me. 

And  may  the  peace  and,  the  joy  that  passeth  all  under- 
standing be  yours,  my  mother,  forever  and  ever.  Amen. 

— Tom  Dillon 

It  is  not  too  much  to  believe  that  a  permanent  organiza- 
tion can  be  formed  which  will  take  over  to  itself  the  whole 
business  of  the  regulation  of  international  affairs. 

— Chittenden 

"Why  should  we  ridicule,  think  very   droll, 
Indian  legends  and  carved  totem  pole, 

When  we,  in  blindness  are  equally  odd 
In  misconception  of  life  and  of  God?" 

— Harriman

A  NEW  LEAF 

He  came  to  my  desk  with  a  quivering  lip, — 

The  lesson  was  done, 

"Dear  Teacher,  I  want  a  new  leaf,"  he  said, 
"I  have  spoiled  this  one." 
I  took  the  old  leaf,  stained  and  blotted, 
And  gave  him  a  new  one,  all  unspotted, 

And  into  his  sad  eyes1  smiled; 

"Do  better  now,  my  child." 

I  went  to  the  throne  with  a  quivering  soul, — 

The  old  year  was  done, 
"Dear  Father,  hast  thou  a  new  leaf  for  me? 

I  have  spoiled  this  one." 
He  took  the  old  leaf,  stained  and  blotted, 
And  gave  me  a  new  one  all  unspotted, 
And  into  my  sad  heart  smiled, 

"Do  better,  now,  my  child." 

— Carrie  Shaw  Rice 


THE  TOILER'S  FEAR 

There  is  one  thing  I  fear. 

Not  death,  nor  sharp  disease, 

Nor  loss  of  friends  I  hold  most  dear, 

Nor  pain  nor  want, — not  these. 

But  the  life  of  which  men  say, 

"The  world  has  given  him  bread, 

And  what  gives  he  to  the  world  as  pay 

For  the  loaf  on  which  he  fed?" 

— Anna  Louise  Strong 


The  only  territory  the  United  States  has  ever  acquired 
by  discovery,  exploration  and  settlement;  the  only  territory 
that  cost  us  nothing  in  cash  by  way  of  purchase,  or  by  the 
use  of  military  or  naval  force.

DON'T  WORRY 

Don't  hurry  or  worry; 

Be  still  and  keep  cool, 
For   hurry   and   worry 

But  make  you  Time's  fool. 

Don't  b'lieve  what  they  tell  you 
'Bout  Time's   flowing  stream, 

'Tis  Eternity  now,  dear, 
All  else  is  a  dream. 

Don't  seek  for  a  heaven 

In  far  distant  skies. 
It  lies  all  around  you 

Just  open  your  eyes. 

Henry  Victor  Morgan. 

Toot,  toot,  toot,

"If  we  believe  that  people  are  mostly  dishonest,  ungen- 
erous, selfish,  gossiping,  troublesome,  we  would  better  be 
looking  at  ourselves  and  trying  to  find  out  what  is  the  matter 
with  us."

"I  venture  to  say  that  if  there  is  one  lesson  written 
more  plainly  than  any  other  across  the  pages  of  human  his- 
tory it  is  this,  that  God  cannot  be  forgotten  with  impunity, — 
but  for  all  that  the  popular  tendency  is  to  leave  God  out  of 
account.  I  plead  for  the  bringing  of  God  back  into  touch 
with  human  life."

OPTIGRAMS 

The  good  we  can  think  of  is  always  possible. 

To  dole  out  a  few  turkeys  at  Christmas  is  good;  but  to 
have  a  social  order  where  every  man  can  buy  his  own  turkey 
is  vastly  better. 

Real  sympathy  is  motional  as  well  as  emotional;  ener- 
getid  as  well  as  pathetic,  taking  no  pleasure  in  "tears,  idle 
tears." 

Some  people  seem  to  enjoy  giving  publicity  to  their  dis- 
appointments. 

Women  understand  men  better  than  men  understand 
women. 

The  only  personalities  who  hold  permanently  the  devotion 
and  admiration  of  humanity  are  the  idealists. 

You  can  preach  the  gospel  through  a  handshake,  a  glance, 
a  laugh,  a  lifting  word. 

What  we  don't  know,  never  frightens  us;  it  is  what  we 
half-know  which  is  the  fertile  seed-plot  of  fear. 

Golf  is  an  artificial  substitute  for  man's  native  need  for 
work  in  the  open  air. 

What  we  really  care  for  in  people  is  not  their  social 
standing  nor  the  fashionableness  of  their  haberdashery,  but 
their  kindness,  reliability  and  integrity. 

God  has  no  stepchildren. 

Naked,  brutal  force  had  never  settled  anything  yet. 
Stoning  Stephen  to  death  only  gave  him  a  more  distinguished 
immortality. 

We  do  not  want  "peace  at  any  price."  We  want  to  pay 
justice,  truth,  trust  and  good  will  for  it. 

— Hugh  Elmer  Brown 


A  little  cloud  of  blue  came  out 

And  settled  on  the  sod. 
Then  one  cried  "Oh,  forget-me-nots." 

One  bowed  and  murmured,  "God." 

— Higginson
